hey... needed help.... i need to find a song on the theme of "repentance".. it needs to relate to the Manciple's tale in Canterbury tales wherein theres a guy who kills his wife thinking she cheated on him but then he later finds out that she was innocent and repents.. i tried google but to no avail.... anyone know a good site where it would be easier finding something about this?

again, the song needs to be preferably sung from the perspective of the guy who kills his wife and repents for doing so....

thanks much

Artist: Gravediggaz
Album: The Pick, The Sicket, and the Shovel
Title: Repentance Day


featuring Hell Razor, Killah Priest

[Hell Razor]
Yo, there's still time
As the door close, the cold wind blows
Down America like the world of Jericho
Some will walk the sheet close
Many are called but few are chose
Who knows until the day they be exposed
UFOs surround the globe
The world is prepared to explode
So I grab hold of the North Pole
Not tryin to meet the lost soul, at the crossroad
We're being sucked up into the black hole
Young becomes old, mighty clouds roll
Unfold the scrolls that were foretold
By the forefathers, the end of the world saga
Streets flooded with lava, mommas and pappas
Toppers, hip hoppers, and rastas
Rock stars and mobsters, above streets in helicopters
Filled with doctors, bring the death rasta
Guts spillin out like pasta
Sky, misty, often tipsy, from off the whiskey
The gypsy, told me, my chances, were risky
Cops, pull up and frisk me, but never could they get me, too shifty
I will go into my dungeon, and summon up the second comin
People started runnin, aliens with hair like rastafarians
Captured, placed inside of aquariums, studied by scientists
This is it, the Apocalypse
I see the mother ship, above the cliff, over Egypt, it made me sea sick
I see the eclipse, and the abyss, the night shifts

Chorus x 2 :
It's Repentance Day! Repent for your sins when the gates of Heaven open
up and Hell's closin in!

[Grym Reaper]
The archangel imprison my soul into a prism
Usin cell division and molecular collision
Within me
He listen and analyze the heartbeat and rhythms
Of children that he brutalized
My ears became used to the vibes of ruined lives
Sounds in the chamber I was hiden in
Was so spine-tinglin I was tremblin
Envisionin the fear, here within a new Millenium
Where rain became toxic, the air's stale and noxious
Comets hit co-ops with force that made blocks split
Flocks tried to escape but fate did make even hard rocks fly
As nuclear dropped out of the sky, killin birds and to fear
For hydroperoxide and sodium oxide, deep down outta basements


OK, maybe not :)

Perhaps Dido's White Flag would fit the bill.

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I'm listening to .38 special - Second Chance. It's not great but it's all you are getting from me at 1:21am ;)

Since you been gone
I feel my life slipping away
I look to the sky
And everything is turnin' grey
All I made was one mistake
How much more will I have to pay
Why can't you think it over
Why can't you forget about the past

Chorus:
When love makes this sound babe
A heart needs a second chance
Don't put me down babe
Can't you see I love you
Since you been gone I've been in a trance
This heart needs a second chance
Don't say it's over I just can't say goodbye

So this is love
Standing in the pouring rain
I fooled on you
But she never meant a thing
And I know I ain't got no right
To ask you to sympathize
But why can't you think it over
Why can't you forget the past

Chorus

I never loved her
I never needed her
She was willing and that's all there is to say
Don't forsake me
Please don't leave me now
A heart needs a second chance
